The Alocasia 'Regal Shield', also known as Elephant Ear 'Regal Shield', is a popular hybrid resulting from the cross between Alocasia odora and Alocasia reginula. Created by LariAnn Gardner of Aroidia Research, this tropical plant is prized for its massive leaves and dramatic dark colours. It brings a striking touch of exoticism and a majestic appearance to any interior.

Key Features

  • Foliage: Large, thick, and glossy leaves, deep dark green on top. The underside of the leaves displays rich shades of purple with very contrasting light green veins, giving it a regal appearance. Leaves can reach a considerable size.
  • Habit: Upright and erect, forming an impressive silhouette. Can reach 30-90 cm (1-3 feet) in height indoors.
  • Growth: Moderately vigorous, takes a few years to reach its mature size.
  • Care: Moderate, requires warm temperatures and consistent humidity.
  • Appeal: Primarily cultivated for the size and dramatic colour of its foliage, which is a true focal point.

Care Tips

  • Light: Prefers several hours of bright indirect light. Can tolerate medium light conditions. Indoors, it can even handle a bit of direct light as glass diffuses harsh sunlight slightly. Outdoors, it's best to keep it away from intense direct sun to prevent leaf burn.
  • Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but not soggy. The substrate should be damp like a wrung-out towel, not dripping wet. Allow the top of the soil to dry slightly before watering again to prevent root rot. Not drought tolerant.
  • Soil: Plant in a chunky, well-draining potting mix, rich in organic matter, that retains some moisture. An aroid mix (such as equal parts coco coir, perlite, and orchid bark) is ideal.
  • Humidity: Thrives in warm and humid conditions, with humidity above 50%, ideally over 60%. A humidifier or grouping with other plants can help.
  • Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 18°C and 27°C (65°F and 80°F). Does not tolerate frost; must be brought indoors when nighttime temperatures drop below 15°C (60°F). Avoid cold drafts.
  • Fertilization: Benefits from regular fertilization during the growing season. Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month from early spring to late summer. Stop fertilizing when growth slows in the fall.
  • Pruning: Pruning is not mandatory, but tidying up old, yellowed, or damaged leaves is advisable to redirect the plant's energy to new growth.
  • Propagation: By division of offshoots (baby plants) or by corms (small bulbs) that form at the base of the mother plant.

Height and Width (Estimates)

  • Height: Up to 1-3 feet (30-90 cm) indoors.
  • Width: Up to 1-2 feet (30-60 cm) indoors.

Caution: Plant considered mildly toxic to humans and pets if ingested. Handle with caution.

Protection with days of white residue
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Mineral sunscreens have yet to master blending in and this is no different. If you're thinking of hitting the beach with your sexy bum protected it'd better be a ghost beach because you'll look like you've been dipped in white paint. Oh, and it doesn't wash off, so be prepared to look like Casper for days to come. It rolls on fine if you shake it well first and it does protect.

Go-To for Reef-Safe & Light-Weight Sunscreen
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Favorite sunblock to travel with. Appreciate the simplicity of it, and the fact that it rolls on and rubs in smooth. Of course the iconic scent is also a plus.

Great choice
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
After I suffered a second-degree burn from steam, I was told by my doctor that I would have to keep my new fresh skin sun-blocked for up to a year to avoid any scarring or hyper pigmentation. This has been a great selection as it is a roll-on, Which helps a lot with preventing messes that can happen with traditional sunblock bottles. I also like that it is easy to travel with, and the fact that it is zinc based.

My favorite new mineral sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favorite new mineral sunscreen! I've been searching for years for a product that is easy to apply, not messy, and doesn't show up too white. This roll-on is the perfect solution. I keep it near the front door and quickly roll the sunscreen on my hands, arms, and chest before leaving the house. The sunscreen applies so quickly and uniformly-- there are no bare spots or messy globs to rub in. Also, the roll-on keeps the sunscreen from oozing out of the tube and getting all over everything. Finally, the roll-on method also eliminates the frustration of having half-filled tubes and pumps where you can't even access the sunscreen when the tube gets low. Here's hoping this doesn't happen with the roll-on. Thank you Sun Bum for creating this wonderful product. I also love the reasonable price.
